Benefits of technology

The invention provides an interchangeable headgear device with a logo attachment. The headgear has a crown, brim, and interior pocket for storing attachments. The logo is connected to the headgear via a coupling mechanism with male / hook projections that connect with female / loop invaginations on the headgear. This allows for easy removal and replacement of the logo without replacing the entire headgear.

Problems solved by technology

In some instances, individuals may desire to indicate support for multiple causes or teams, but may be limited due to each cause being formed with its logo on its own individual headgear.
